fighter, he’s already held the EU title along with being the number one
fighter in Finland, so I expect him to be-coming over to the UK looking
for the win.”

“He
will bring everything he’s got.” added Lenny “We've been studying him
on YouTube and looking at his record he’s certainly not going to be a
push over.

as the fight goes on, the crowd will get louder and louder, and he’s
not going to like it as my fans are some of the loudest in the world, he
will never have experienced anything like it.” Said Daws
